Is Les Andelys a good place to live?

A town with more to fix than most. Schools are its weak spot — bac results 6.5 points below the expected rate; brevet results 3.5 points below the expected rate. Les Andelys grades C− overall and ranks #34 of 39 in Eure. Set against the rest, it does better than 16% of compared French towns. Its strongest is walkability (B+) — just over half of residents live within 800 m of a bakery, and 17% of working residents walk, cycle or take public transport to work. Buying 70 m² at the median €1,778/m² takes 4.7 years of the median income per consumption unit in the Communauté d'agglomération Seine Normandie Agglomération.
